Sprinkler Pipe & Leak Repair in Del Rey, CA
Pipes break from age, roots, soil movement and digging. A cracked fitting or a split PVC lateral can send water to the surface or just under it, and sometimes nowhere visible until the lawn thins out.
We isolate the zone, locate the break, cut out the damaged section and repair it with proper fittings. If a run is worn out, we tell you what replacing it would involve.
A leak left running is waste. Fixing a broken line in Del Rey is one of the fastest ways to stop paying for water that never reaches the lawn.
